A gorgeous closeup of this Skylark Graham. I'm sure the flight shot won't be far behind ;)

.... LOL I'd sure have taken this one as a prize though Graham - a super picture. You'll get a flight shot one day.

I find these a nightmare to get, either on or off the ground!!

One up on you with Thrush Nightingale though... saw a parent feeding a chick in a rather dark area of trees. Too dark for a picture with my old camera.... you'll just have to believe me!!;)
 
LoL, when you want them to fly they sit and look at you!

It's a super close shot though Graham!
